Spade is a circus performer and an accomplished magician. He has decided to take up racing in order to enough money to rescue the circus from its financial difficulties. His racing techiques are risky and sometimes amazing, but he's quite fickle and will sometimes drop out of a race suddently or not run it seriously. As a result, his overall record isn't that great. Nobody, not even his friends at the circus, have seen the face behind Spade's mask.
